Thirty buildings from the Edo period to the early Showa period, which had high cultural value but were difficult to preserve on site, have been relocated and restored and are on display. Indoor exhibits are also held according to the period of construction and the purpose for which the building was used, recreating the lifestyle and culture of that time. The designs for the film Spirited Away (2001), directed by Hayao Miyazaki (Studio Ghibli), were based on the designs of public bathhouses in the museum and the architecture of merchant houses in the downtown area.

When calligrapher Taguchi Beiho visited the temple outside Gusu city in China in 1885, he was entrusted with a wooden statue of Shaka Buddha by the head monk, Soshinshi. After returning to Japan, the temple was built here in 1930 with the cooperation of Ozawa Taihei.
